To Be Thankful

Maybe everyday should be Thanksgiving day, because in reality, we should be thankful for so much.

I have a bed to sleep in, food to eat, clothes to put on my back, friends that make me laugh until I cry, family like no other, and what do I always do? complain. I promise you I complain more than anyone else on the planet, but honestly I have nothing to complain about.

There are seriously kids in Africa who have been TAKEN from their homes, forced to KILL their parents, taught how to VIOLENTLY MURDER their peers, and are exposed to DEATH more than I will ever have seen. Yet, I still complain.

Those kids, those sweet Ugandan kids, are honestly more thankful than I am. They're thankful for their single blanket, their sip of water, their shack, their brothers and sisters that aren't dead. 

Yet I'm not thankful for my laptop, my computer, my freewill, and I need to fix this. Now. As I sat around talking with my family at thanksgiving lunch, about nothing real important, I realized, I've got it pretty good. No more complaining, no more whining, no more "I want this, I want that," but more "wow, I'm glad I have this, and man I'm sure lucky,"


Happy Thanksgiving

Create Me.

So guyses, how you likin' my new blog look? I really like the fact that its an older computer, but you can only see it all if you put it into a full screen. I'm taking a graphic design class this year(excitement) so maybe i can make an awesome back ground for my bloggy poopoo:)

Anyway.

I've always been the person that tries so hard to be creative. I love project runway, America's next top model, and any other fashion/ artsy show out there. Or any show on bravo for that matter. Yet, besides dance... I have not one creative bone in my body. I'm the "nerd". I'm that person who could tell you that the quadratic formula is

I had to Google it because I couldn't find the square root sign, but I still know it. I love my brain, so to speak, yet I want to wear something pretty for once. The following is what is in my closet: -american eagle jeans, -old navy tshirt. Thats it. I've got some old navy shorts too, but other than that, thats all.

I have no style. Well I guess you could say I do, but not a cute one! I'm happy in a T and jeans, but I think I could do so much better. Do you understand what I'm saying? Probably not, but I have to say this is the weirdest post I have ever posted. So I'm just going to end this right now. Bye.

Peace out Girl Scout.

Make it or Fake it.

First impressions. Yup. We all make 'em. But how do we really make a good first impression? First it starts out with your outfit. Yeah, how materialistic is that, but it's true. If you see someone wearing nothing but black clothes and spiked bracelets you're going to think wow they must be a goth. Its awful how today's society we make snap judgement about people because of the way someone looks, but thats why I'm writing this. WHAT SHOULD I WEAR! What you wear defines you. Defines who you are. But I don't know who I am.

I look in my closet and see clothes everywhere. I wonder. Who do I want to be today. I could be a million different people. Am I indie? Am I rock? Am I prep? Am I goth? Am I athletic? Am I nerdy? WHO AM I? Who do I want people to see me as? Who do I want to present myself to the world as? I really wish I would find out because I am having several fashion melt downs.

Peace out Girl Scout.
